chance to find out Leading a colonising party to a
barren planet you aim to create the perfect society,
where everyone has a quality of life rating of 100%.
Do you spend money on weapons or social

The myriad of decisions to be made are yours, and
the fact that there are over ten different alien races
all bursting for the opportunity to wipe out the
colony should speed up the decision making process.

SUSPICIOUS CARGO

you don’t want inquisitive customs folk asking
questions, or tiresome legal documentation, then 'Lady
Luck' is the ship, and Jonah Hayes is your man...

- his cargo is alive (genetically speaking], dangerous
and sought after by a rival company who'll stop of
nothing to cripple his dodgy tramp freighter and take
over the job!

SHE EIDERS

BACK TO BASICS

Triple R Education have released
something for the younger
members of your family. According
to their press release Picture Book
is, "A fabulous and friendly
welcome to computers. It is the
ideal first software package for any
child taking them from touching
their first key to see what happens
right through to elementary spelling
and counting."

The package has been
designed by a team of
programmers, teachers and
graphics designers with more
awards and qualifications than you
can shake a stick at I had great
fun playing this and was very
pleased when I managed to
complete the game, although I did
have to use a cheat to get past the
counting section.

rsvGnosis:

SIM lEIISDED

Psygnosis have opted to use wire vectors on Air Support They claim that it makes the game far
more atmospheric as weli as making the scrolling and update far smoother and quicker.

P sygnosis' last strategy game was
Armour Geddon and It was rather
good to say the least. Right now,
those mega software bods from
Liverpool are currently working on
their next strategy game, called Air
Support, and it looks as if it is going to
be far better than anything that we
have seen before.

it is set in the future where military
technology has advanced so much
that the human element is the
weakest pari of any war machine.
Rather than controlling vehicles from a
cockpit, the pilots are now all cyber-
finked to a computer and they operate
them via high speed simulations.

You begin the game at the lowest
rank and must work your way up the
ladder until you either reach Field
Commander or are thrown from the
force with hundreds of demerits.

As you get more competent Ihe
standard of the missions you must
complete increases in difficulty,
starting with simple vehicle
familiarisation to a full scale war..

Air Support is programmed by
Auric Binnie and features over 12
different types of attack craft, intense
war time strategy, excellent
presentation and stunning vector
graphics. There’ll be more news as we
receive it.

MISSING HERO FQIfNB

Many moons ago, Uttie Beau
appeared on our cover disk and got
a pretty good review as well as
being awarded an Amiga Action
recommended but after that it
disappeared from the face of the
Earth. We received several
telephone calls from readers who
couldn't get hold of the game so we
decided to find out just what had
happened to this cutesy little
platform game.

Eventually we discovered that
due to one thing and another
Digital Magic, who were the original
publishers, were no more. But the
good news is that Millennium have
rescued poor Beau and he will now
be appearing on your Amiga just
before Christmas.

Several months ago Little Beau was ready
to storm across the computer scene hot he
suddenly disappeared. Now the mystery
has been solved.

(Above) The strategic map allows yon to plan
your attacks on enemy bases and calculate
such things as angles of attack, approach paths
and velocity vectors. Its all a hit above me.

(Top right) You pitot the attack cmft via a high
spend simulation system that allows you to
attack enemy bases without putting human life
at risk as weli as removing the weak human
element from the war machines.

(Bottom right) There are over 12 different
attack craft featured ip Air Support and each
has its own role to perform. Using the correct
vehicle to complete a task will make your job
much easier.

(Below) Air Support boasts many features but
as we all know the most important part of any
game is the playability Psygnosis want to keep
the action fast and furious but detailed enough
to make you think hetore you act. We shall see.

STEEL TALK

S teel Talons is a helicopter combai
' simulator for one or two players.
If you are playing with a friend you
can either work together or hunt each
other down. Sitting in the dual cabinet
with each player wiggling their
authentic controls while missiles and
cannon rounds fly all over the screen
is an exhilarating experience. The 3D
routines are outstanding, being
extremely smooth and fast. The
vehicles and objects used in the
game are highly detailed and are
made from more polygons than you
can shake a stick at! Definitely one of
the best machines at the show.

D eveloped in tandem with the movie's production
company, Terminator 2 is a total video game
experience that features actual film footage and speech
from the one and only Arnold Schwarzenegger, even the
gun controls have been modelled after the battle rifles
used in the film.

The gameplay is along the lines of the classic
Operation Wolf but the sophisticated graphics and sound
are what sets it above all of the other games in the same
style The action races along at break neck speed and
never lets up.

A Fantastic and Spectacular Voyage
Through the Human Body...

Into the Brain.

A Centaur Software Production
Programmed fay Marc Hawliheck
Graphics fay Fleckenstein Art Studios
Art Direction fay Christian F. Laursen
Music by Bjorn A. Lynne
Produced by John Sievers

Based upon the film
“Fantastic Voyage”
Academy Award Winner
1966 Special Visual Effects

You alone command the experimental submarine Proteus which has
been miniaturized andinjected into the body of a dying scientist. In order
to save his life, you must skillfully navigate your way through a maze of
blood vessels to his brain, fighting white blood celts, antibodies and
other dangerous hazards every step of the way. The body’s powerful
immune system challenges you, the foreign invader, the unwelcome
intruder who must be destroyed.

Experience awesome music end sound effects, arcade-lihe 8-way
scrolling, multiple skill levels and incredibly detailed animations.
Developed to take full advantage of the Amiga, the game features unique
“organic" graphics unlike anything you’ve ever seen

E xperience an adrenalin rush as
you pilot a Starbiade fighter in an
attack against a Red Eye battle
cruiser that is threatening the safety of
the Earth. The machine features real
time 3-DCG {what ever that is!), an
active seat that gives your botty a real
pounding and an infinite Distance
Projection System. The feeling of
size and scale is truly amazing and
helps to make this some of the best
3D I have ever seen.

The gameplay is along the lines of
the Star Wars games but is far more
sophisticated. This was definitely the
best game of the show and 1 would
recommend it to everybody.

T his game takes the multi-player
link up to an extreme. Up to eight
players can compete simultaneously
for the number one spot on the
winner s rostrum. Each player has his
own first person perspective of the
circuit as you race around in a
Formula 1 Grand Prix race car. What
makes this game is the excitement of
racing against so many real drivers,
but beware of any punch-ups if you
ram somebody off the track!

D eep in the Andes, the Hearn drug syndicate is
controlling the inhabitants as if they were slaves.
You have managed to free many of the hostages and are
fleeing from the bad guys' hideout cave in a rail car. Tear
around the track, up and down hills and around sharp
curves (with the hydraulic seat throwing you all over the
place) while trying to blast the enemy with your machine
gun. This is another Operation Wolf clone (well it's closer
to Op. Thunderbolt actually) but relies on vastly improved
graphics to knock the socks off of any competition.
Overall it isn't quite as good as Terminator 2, which has
similar gameplay, but the magical bench (!) seat makes it
more of a novelty.

Always write protect your disk and turn your

Grand Master Acanthropsis was approaching
pensionable age and the power of his magic
was beginning to wane. It was time for him to
choose someone to pass his power onto before he
departed from this plane. The obvious choice was one of his
two loyal apprentices, Alestes and Mentor but which one he could
not decide!

Finally, Acanthropsis devised a test for the two young mages,
the victor receiving the chance to learn the secrets of Acanthropsis 1
magical power. The test was taken and Alestes was triumphant
much to the
displeasure of Mentor.

Unfortunately, for ail
his teaching Mentor
was still a very bad
loser, and vowed to
stop Alestes with all
the means that he had
at his disposal.

Do you remember that tasty game by UbiSoft,
Unreal? Well, Agony fs programmed by the same
people so you can expect to see some astonishing
graphics lo this one. The demo gives you a taste of
what the real thing is going to be tike. The finished
product will unleash six action-packed levels for you
to fight your way through.

Within Agony you Control Alestes in the form
of an owl akin to the famous Psygnosis
symbol. Flying through the various terrains of the
world he must vanquish the horde of creatures that
have been summoned by Mentor In order to try and prevent
the airborne Alestes from learning the secrets of his Master's power.

Fortunately, Alestes already has a small knowledge about magic
and with this he will be able to activate various weapons and potions

that he will
discover along the
way. However,
even with these
weapons his quest
is still going to be

EXODUS 3010: fin action packed space adventure game
that will take your computer to its limits.

Demonware Takes You Beyond The

Final Frontier.

EXODUS 3010

The new space exploration game from Demon ware
places YOU in charge of a Galactic cruiser
containing the last survivors from Earth s now
destroyed civilisation. Have you the strength,
ingenuity and courage needed to find a new home ?
You will have to complete over 60 missions plus many
more tasks using ail the resources and technology
available to you.

How will you handle alien lifeforms ? Some may be
superior in technology and intelligence - all will be
different. Shoot first or try and negotiate ? The on¬
board communication system will give you full control
whatever your decisions.

With 50 highly trained and ciyogenically frozen pilots
under your command you wifi have some help. Each
pilot s personality can be specifically tailored to give
him or her a unique behavioural pattern. Who reacts
best under pressure, who has the Intelligence to solve
problems themselves, who can handle sophisticated
equipment ? With more than 1 billion variations, it
may take some time to find out I

Control up to 10 scoutships and other space craft. You
can either plan your tactics and use the strategy
display or take he controls of any ship and get stuck
into the action. With fast and smooth 3-D vector
graphics, you II believe you really are there I

While you re busy fighting, don t forget to look after
the rest of the systems on your ship ! You II need to
find new materials to replenish your stocks, and with
a bit of help from the laboratories you might even
manage to produce q new photon drive, laser or
computer. You tl certainly need to master the art of
manufacture if you want to build new ships and
equipment.

If this all sounds a bit too complicated, don t worry,
the easy to use point n dick system let s you get
straight in, and you can always leave the difficult bits
up to the computer! But to ultimately succeed you
will need a courage, skill, stamina and smart thinking.

HUE, DIVE, HUE!

To start the dive press fire; the power of the
dive shown is set by hitting the fire button
again when the power ring Is at its largest. To
perform the dive correctly move the joystick left and
right to follow the path of the inner ball - you do not have to
keep up with the bail, just follow the path it takes.

When you have completed the competition dive the score board
will show you how well you have performed the early elements of
the dive, your
entry into the
water and of
course the overall
score. That's all
there is to it t but
getting it all right is

Unfortunately, this demo can only be run on an Amiga with one meg
of memory. Before you do anything make sure that your machine
has been switched off for at least thirty seconds and that the disk is
on write protect. Then insert the
disk into the drive and and hofd
down the CTRL and D keys to
stop the other demos from
loading. Next, type DEMO to
play the game or Slideshow to
see what else you can expect
from Empire.

Always write protect your disk and turn your
Amiga off for 30 seconds after playing the demo.^^
This will reduce the chances of virus Infection.

The programmers have really gone to town
and have incorporated some neat ideas. The
marathon is always a boring event, especially the
50QG metres, so to solve this problem you can start the
race and then play the other events while the race
continues, coming back to it every now and then to see how your
man is faring.

The show jumping will be breathtaking as well with vector graphics
being used to really give you the feel of being there traversing the
tricky Jumps.

But back to the
present issue. Empire
have provided us with a
one level demo for you
lucky people to savor.

The event featured is
the diving and will see
you whizzing through
the air and into the
water with perfect grace
(you wish!).

Although most of the controls are activated
via the joystick, a couple of the weapons that
you'll collect can only be fired by the space bar.
As for controlling TB himself, welt that's pretty simple.

Pushing forward on the joystick will make the ground
version of TB run forwards; left and right will move him in the
respective directions. If you stand still TB will crouch down enabling
you to shoot any of the shorter enemies.

Now here's the good bit! Pulling back on the joystick will turn TB
into a plane enabling
you to venture up into
the skies, but make
sure you've got
enough energy or
you'll soon find
yourself dropping at
an alarming rate
towards the ground-
That’s about it really.

The Thunder Burner project had only just
come to a close when a mission briefing
emerged from the fax machine in the lab. But
although the machine had been assembled the
scientists that had worked on TB still wanted it to be tested.
Sending it out on a mission while it still had faults could be fatal, but
the men at the top wouldn't listenl

Numerous terrains will have to be crossed and countless enemies
battled before TB eventually reaches he enemies base. And on top
of that special guardians will have to be disposed of along the way.

When Thunder Burner begins his mission he is relatively unarmed,
and the more powerful weapons that he can use have to be collected
during the game. These extras come in the shape of large spheres
that hover in the air.

TB can use a grand total of four different weapons, each
wreaking an enormous amount of damage on anything that it comes
in contact with. There are also energy spheres that will recharge our
metallic hero, enabling him to take to the skies and fly around for
quite a considerable while, avoiding most of the perilous encounters
that lurk on the ground.

M indscape were hinting that Wing
Commander II (their current hit on
the IBM PC) ts in the process of
being re-written for the Amiga and
will be available late 92, Personally I'll try not to get
over excited about that, because I have a suspicion
that it won't be such a big deal.

The PC demo of the game is mind-blowing, but
anyone who has seen it would have to be blind not
to notice that 99% of the demo comes from the
‘hands-off sequences, and not from the actual
game itself - which looks [ike a basic, space
shoot em-up,

Mindscape’s other news is that Ultima VI is
finally being released for the Amiga {it shoutd be
out by the time you read this), in the Conference
Room we were treated to a few scenes from Ultima

you sick that the interesting stuff always seems to
be coming out next year 1 when this year you can
only buy Bart Simpson?

At the Electronic Arts stand I accosted the 'suit 1
who was in charge, and kicked his leg until he gave
me the release date for the Black Crypts RPG
which I have been lusting after since I first saw it at
the September Show, Late January is the latest
estimate and \ was tickled pink to hear that for a
change the IBM PC version will not be available
until at feast eight months after it Is released on the
Amiga. Serves them right! New Maps for Old,

Did I telt you that I have a biscuit tin under
my bed which I keep for emergencies during
the night? Inside It I store all my ancient
maps which l pore through when ! get lost
in some old adventure. Happily I received
an early Christmas present this month
which might mean the end of my old tin -
it's an Adventurer s Mapping Pad,

E hate drawing maps at the best of
times, and when J do finaily decide to a
chart my stumbling progress I can never
find a decent piece of paper anyway.
Hopefully this pad of pre printed sheets
will help solve my problem and force me
to replace my spaghetti scribblings with
something better.

The pad of paper is wad of A4 sized
sheets which have been printed with a
pattern of boxes in an 8x10 design. On the
back of the sheet are columns to record
location descriptions, objects found and
notes. There is nothing new or especially
Innovative about the pad, but like all things it
just makes life a little easier.

You could of course draw up endless
sheets of paper yourself which would do the
same job, but it's the kind of task which
somehow you never get around to. At least
with this you’ll always have the right thing
to hand, and with its help you’ll always
produce neat maps to send to the Boggit.

The pad costs £6.99 & £1.45 p&p and
you can obtain it from Black Knight
Supplies, Unit 15, Longcauseway,

Hop aboard a railway wagon for a quick

have to have your own drawing package to create
your wonderful graphics, and that also goes for any
sound effects that you wish to include.

The box explicitly says that 'it is designed
specifically for the ‘creation" of text, sound and
animated graphic adventures'. The publishers
might rightly argue that it's obvious that you would
need to have bought these other software
packages separately, but it doesn’t say so on the
box. What it should say is that this is a High Level
Language Compiler which has subroutines to
“handle" text, sound and graphics.

There is also a Debugger which is enables you
to step through your program and interrogate the
state of your program's flags and variables, and this
is what they mean when the talk about the
development system. But it is as friendly as a
starving Troll

If you already have the capability to draw and
design a complex adventure in a high level
language then this package should make things a
lot easier for you, but if you can% then it won’t

Have you seen the new Public Domain software
which can turn your Amiga into an Atari ST?

It writes CRAPI CRAP! CRAP! all over your screen!

recruit fellow heroes who will follow
you in your quest, but before setting off
for the far mountains where the heavy
action will take place, you’ll need to
spend some time building up your
men s skills. Tramping around the local
Hobbit village you’ll find lots of small
tasks which need to be cleared up.

Speak to the locals and they'll tell /
you that there are lost children to be \
found and one blind Hobbit has lost
his dog. All these tasks will gain you
points and help increase skills such as
swimming and woodcraft.

When the Black Riders finally turn
up in the Shires it’s time to high-tail it
for the far peaks. Ail the actions are
carried out via on-screen icons and they
are simple to use

In keeping with many of Interplay's
games they have saved memory by
removing much of the text descriptions
from the game and simply giving you
a paragraph reference number which
can be looked up in the manual As
you and your merry band trudge
around the Middle-earth scenario, the
view of your surroundings is shown in a
bird’s-eye view similar to that used in the
Times of Lore RPG.

Another similarity with that game is
the funereal pace at which everything
moves. I just know that the slow action
of some games is something which is
going to get right up my nose in the
coming year. Games which arrive on
the Amiga after being developed on
the IBM PC always seem so torpid I

It is too soon to say whether this
will turn out to be a really good game,
and I don’t want to damn it with faint
praise, but f can't see anything in it
that really excites me at this point. No
doubt it has lots of features hidden

New Blooms

It's been a quiet month in the nursery plot, with not
a lot of new software to show for it. I suspect the
software houses are holding back their best blooms

Do you know what this is? It’s the cash which you

spend it on software for yourself.

tike to know what is the purpose of
the Amulet.

Andrew Edwards, Portsmouth

I'm rot sure that I know where all of
^ the Words of Power are, but here's
how to get the ones that f do know;
BRITTANY BAY - Use the Black Badge
to get The Crown and Word Of Power
from the prisoner

JHELOM - Talk to the bewildered Mage
who responds to "backward* words. Ask
for a "Word of Power", by saying, "Drew of
Rewop", then say u Dratsed”.

MOONGLOW - Mai if ora knows a Word of
Power.

WfNDMERE - Thrud will provide you with
some jewelled weapons for the
i resistance password.

YEW - To reach the tower level, go
through one of the fireplaces. If jailed,
you will be taken to the celts behind
Judge Dryden's office and should talk
with Jerome. In another cell you will meet
Feiespar. Give him the password of the
resistance, and he's sure to give you a
Word of Power.

SHRINES - If you visit a shrine, then the
Codex, then the shrine again, you will be
rewarded. Once you have visited all of the
shrines you will be given the Word of
Power for Dungeon Doom.

The Amulet is used when you enter
S the Dungeon Doom in the final quest.
u To get here you enter via Dungeon
Shame and use the Amulet to get
through the dark area. You must have
the Crown, Sceptre, Amulet and the
Word of Power for Doom. You'll also
need the Sandalwood Box.

Despite its age, Dungeon Master is stlli holding
its own at tits top of our Adventure League tattle.

If you think the sword-wielding skeletons are
tough you are in for a shock when you meet up
with the Stone Golems.

health they often do vast amounts of
damage with a single blow.

Your best offence is to trap them with
a Magic Box and use all four
champions, the front line meleeing
with their best weapons while the
back rank simultaneously casts
powerful lightning bolts.

Using Magic Boxes and dungeon
doors together is very effective.
Thankfully, closeable doors are common
in the areas where you will meet them.
Another slow but sure method is to
fight them in a room containing a
central pillar,

Golems move so slowly that you
can run around the pillar and hit them
from behind, turn around and do it
again in the opposite direction before
they can work out where you went.( f

Thought tor Today

God is real, unless declared as an
Integer! (That's a piece of info for ail the
Fortran programmers).

Aha, Shadowgate is one of my favourite J goiden
oldies', l see that this game is selling cheap from
the Special Reserve Club and at their price It's a
bargain. As for your globe problem, have you never
heard of the ground being referred to as Terra
Firma? (It's also used to describe the solid matter
situated between an Atari user s ears, but that's
another story).

By now you should have found the scroll which
that says; Key to the World 1 and "Terra Terrak'.
This is a magic scroll and if you Operate 1 it on the
world the globe will open. The bad guys in the
Armoury are not Kobo Ids, they're Goblins.

If you want to know the difference just try
calling my postman a Kobold and you'll be wearing
your guts for a necktie. The moral of the story is
that Goblins are bad news and you should stay
away from them. There is nothing in the Armoury
for wimps like yourself.

Stone Dead

Having taken your advice some months ago and
purchased Dungeon Master l have found myself
well and truly lumbered with a problem. I have got
myself within throwing distance of the Firestaff, but
have come up against double force-field doors and
double Stone Golem sentries.

Are the Golems indestructible? I have thrown
fireballs, lightning bolts and dispel spells to no avail.
1$ there a solution ?

Problems or no problems f still feel Dungeon
Master deserves Its place in the League Table ,
even more so considering the time span between
the making of the two games.

f do not totally agree with your opinion that
D.M. is needed before Chaos Strikes Back is
attempted. Having purchased Chaos first l
managed to advance my players to Master Wizard
status until they ran into a Stone Golem on the Way
of Ku>

Granted, Chaos would be easier to play having
conquered D.M. and then be in possession of the
Firestaff. Anyway, keep up the good work but don't
let the candle burn too low . Congrats for producing
the best arcade adventure helpline around.

By now you will be itching to lake
control of your own squad of
Space Marines. There are three
ways of achieving this goal. You
can either join the Adeptus
Astartes and spend years of your
life serving the Emperor, buy a
copy of Space Crusade, or win
yourself the game just by
answering the question below.

The rank of Commander is a
highly responsible position and as
we cannot have any old heretic
leading men Into battle we have
made the question a toughie that
only the truly loyal will know the
answer to.

What is the home world of the
Blood Angels' chapter of the
Space Marines? Send your
answer to

Space Crusade
compo, Amiga Action, Europe
House, Ad ting ton Park,
Macclesfield, Cheshire SKID
4NP, ,

The Horus Heresy m a terrible time for tbe Imp$rim t many chapters of marines were mutated
by the Gods of Chaos and turned on their leaders. These servants of darkness stiff exist and ere
some ot the most dangerous troops you wilt ever encounter.

The Imperium is the
greatest federation in
the history of
mankind, its domain
spanning hundreds of
galaxies and millions
of star systems. The protectors of the
Empire are the Adeptus Astartes, the
Space Marines. Thousands of
chapters of these ultimate warriors
are ready to counter any threat to the
human race in an instant.

On the fringes of
known space a drifting
craft has been detected.

As a commander of the
Blood Angels chapter you
must take a strike squad and
gain control of the space hulk,
eliminating the terrors that wait In
the dark corridors before any
colonials are endangered.

COMMAND AND CONTROL

The chapter Primarch, Saguinius,
controls the overall campaign to gain
control of the hulk and informs you of
the missions you and your squads

must complete. If successful you will
steadily capture strategically critical
areas of the craft. Control rooms,
cargo holds, docking bays and
ammunition dumps are all mission
targets and each is vital to the
success of the campaign.

THE LITANV TO WEAPONS

Before beginning a mission, you must
choose your weapons and prepare a
plan of action. Each marine starts
with a Bolt Gun. the
standard sidearm of all
warriors of the
Imperium, and some form
of dose combat weapon.

In addition you may kit out
a few of your troops with
specialist equipment or support
weapons. Missile Launchers, Plasma
and Melta Cannons, Frag and Krak
Grenades, Heavy Bolters and
Autocannons are just some of the
absolutely splendiferous weapons at
your disposal.

After choosing your weapons (and
reciting the correct prayers to ensure
they do not fail you in combat) you
must formulate a plan of attack. The
weapons that you are carrying must
all be used to their full potential as
well as using the terrain to your
utmost advantage.

A overhead scan of the hulk,
showing corridors and rooms, allows
you to calculate a path through the
twisting labyrinth to reach your
objective with the least amount of
contact with the enemy.

INDEX ASTARTES

1) MAIN WINDOW: This is where the
action takes place.

2) CHAPTER BADGE: Shows the
currently operational chapter.

3) WEAPON: The weapon that is in use,
in this case a Flamer.

4) MAP: Afiows you to keep tabs on ail
of year imps.

5) SELECT ICON: Choose the next
marine to oomroL

8) SQUAD: Only the sergeant and two
marines are left alive.

7) CONTROL ICONS: Move i, shoot and
give orders to your troops.

THE FORCES OF CHAOS

While on its long travel through the
darkest areas of warp space, the hulk
has picked up many passengers. The
war loving Orks form the bulk of the
enemy, they carry weapons similar to
your own and this alone makes them
a formidable opponent In command

Using scanning equipment you can got an overhead view of the corridors and check for any
dangers that lie ahead. The Dreadnought hiding in the corridor is a fearsome opponent and
should bo avoided if possible.

% Photon Grenades do not cause physical damage like normal weapons hut ara just as vsefut.

The bright Hash they emit when detonated is enough to blind opponents white the marines are
j4 protected by their Auto Senses.

lingers, Why not cheer
yourselves up a little by taking a break
from the frantic fun of FI and
participate in the one of the world's
finest rallies - the Paris to Dakar?

Under the name of 6ig Run, this
racy title is, of course, a coin op

is a money guzzler all over the country but now, for a mere £25.99, you can
play the game as often as you like in the comfort of your own shack.

Big Run consists of six considerably challenging stages through Tozeur,
Tumu, Agadez, Bamako, St Louis and Dakar. ‘So what difference does that
make?" you may well be wondering. Where you are determines the type of
bumpy terrain you are racing over. With a time limit to beat, grip the wheel, push
your foot down on the accelerator and pray you make it to the end.

little difference.

At last however, we have a
saviour, Captain Planet and his team
of gallant Planeteers have pledged to
save Earth's threatened environment
once and for all. Using their God given
powers earth, fire, wind, water and

the special powers
available to you and learn the varied
techniques of gameplay for each level.

Each mission objective is
highlighted before you begin. A typical
mission could involve saving a
number of elephants or dosing down
a series of nuclear waste sites.

The game is played over five,
eight way scrolling backdrops, each of
which contains a multitude of
platforms, plants, nasties and other
precarious obstacles. Using your
characters ability to run and jump you
must negotiate the terrain and blast
the nasties.

Fortunately, your special powers
have other uses. For instance, on the
first level your flying hearts can be
fired al plants to make
them grow, which in
turn make ideal
ladders, it's even
possible to fire
hearts beneath

yourself and safely float to the ground.

Each level has a different theme
based upon the team member's

joystick controls remain constant

the challenging gamepiay and addictive nature of
the game cannot realty be faulted, ft’s lust a

quirks. For instance, when t die, / don f expect to

on your next opponent you should examine this

TEAM: DSI

The lights are on, the
crowd is cheering and
your opponent is
waiting. Grab your
gloves and silty shorts
and prepare to punch
the living daylights out of some poor
sod. Yep f 40 Sports Boxing is here
and it's high time for a little bit of
gratuitous violence in the name of
honour and sportsmanship.

Before you step into the ring and
black out you must prepare your alter
ego for the pounding he (or she, you
can have female boxers) is about to
take. After deciding upon the initial
attributes of your fighter, such as
height and weight, off you go to get in
some training.

SKIPPING IS FOR PODFS

Before each fight you must prepare for
the punishment you are about to
receive by working out in the gym.
Using the speed bag (the thing that
looks like the dangly bit inside your
throat) improves your, well speed and
the heavy bag allows you to get some
power behind your punch Finally

there is skipping which makes you
look a right nancy but if does hefp

SMACK ID THE MARF

4D Sports Boxing uses loads of fiNed
polygons and modelled movement to
convey the action and excitement of a
boxing match as well as multiple
camera angles. You can even video
the match to watch the next morning.
However, you aren't here to watch the
fight but to fake part in it.

You have complete control over

your character in the ring, dodging
and weaving about canvas to your
hearts content but at sometime you
are going to have to close in and start
exchanging blows.

Using the joystick you can go for
the upper cut followed by a swift right
before decking the poor outmatched
fellow with a quick
one two. Just like
Muhammed wossiss
name often said,

"Move like a flutterby,
sting like a bee/'

Judging 4D Sports Boxing by the box alone f
would be very enthusiastic about it. However,
when you start ro play the game the beautiful
screenshots suddenly become obnoxiously
slow and jerky anti there is a long and tedious
pa ttsB between each sect ion. To be quite
honest , for a one Meg onty game, this just
isn't good enough. Completing the game is
also very, very easy. Each light can be won by
simply activating your joystick s autofire and
pushing forwards. Your opponent won’t have
a chance to retaliate as you hit him over anti
over again. This is definitely a case of avoid if
at all possible. Jason

The gym is the place to work out and Improve your abilities including speed , power and stamina.

SHOOT 'EW-IIP

With the publishers
claiming it could well
be the greatest racing
game on the
computer, there are a
number of questions
we ail want answered. Will it feature
unbelievably fast scrolling? Will there
be a Ninja in the driving seat?

Will there be two sequels to
maintain the company's fetish for the
number three? Well, let the people at
System 3 tell you all about It..

“Turbo-Charge concerns the
forces of International Terrorism , who
are stealing U.N '. arms stockpiles
from neighbouring countries using a
network of ruthless dictators , They
are plotting confront the U.S. in all-
out war."

Essentially, the game seats you
behind the wheel of a high-
performance sports car In a chase
filled with thrills, spills, and blasting
galore! Although the market is
nearing saturation point with driving
products, System 3 feel there is more
than enough room for Turbo-Charge,
They explained the main elements
behind the game:

“We wanted to try to create a
driving adventure with a comic strip
story fine that would appear at
relevant points and change itself
according to the skills of the player.
This is executed in the form of 30
screens appearing throughout Some
of the car crash screens are hilarious:
they show the UN officers buried up
to their heads in ant hills or facing the
music from a well known dictator ,"

So what about the game’s
background? System 3 revealed all:
"Turbo-Charge started life as
Borderline^ It was planned as a high

would create a brand new border
dispute for a small royalty and
loading screen credit thus we were
able to add Saudi Arabia border
with Iraq to our list "Hmmnfi!

The final game will boast a large
variety of sprites with backgrounds
appropriate to the scenarios. Their
supreme confidence in Turbo-
Charge's ability to succeed is in
evidence here:

There's lots more action and
atmosphere compared to similar
games. It contains a style of car
handling that lends itself beautifully to
this type of road-blaster. Also, in
typical System 3 fashion, there is an
emphasis on detailed and glossy
background graphics ."

Already, System 3 are planning
another driving game. Based around
the exploits of Grand Prrx drivers, it is
due out in the latter half of 1992,

Meanwhile, you can expect to
see Turbo-Charge hitting the shelves
in the cold month of February, after
what will have been around 14
months of intense development.

It gives us ail something to look
forward to in the New Year Thanks
to Adrian CaJe for his valuable help.

System 3, well known ror botn their innovation and inspiration with the likes
of Last Rllnja. ninja Romm, and Last lilnla ill are now diversifying into the
world of motor racing, lindotorrod by Bramllii’s classics, and probably
unaware of microprose s n Grand ?m maim System »Turbo-Charge is

speed driving game with the
emphasis on sharp-shooting l The
game would be set around the
world s most troubled frontiers with
the player taking the role of a UN
Customs controller in a friendly
country lumbered with the job of
preventing Western Arms reaching
the wrong hands (get it?) across the
border „ even if it meant crashing
through the border posts and facing
certain death at the hands of a
dictator on his own turf.

After much thought, we decided
to set the game in the following

trouble spots: South Africa’s border
with Zimbabwe T Thailand's border
with Cambodia , Panama’s border
with Colombia, Ulster's border with
Eire. West Germany $ border with
East Germany , America s border with
Mexico, Hong Kong s border with
China and Egypt’s with Libya.

Rugby is one of those
sports that you either
love or hate. I fit into
the latter category, t
never have liked it
and probably never
will. Lately though, it r s been very
difficult to avoid, what with the Rugby
World Cup and all that. So, you can
imagine my delight when Domarks
official World Cup edition made its
way into the Amiga Action offices.

At a glance (or should I say from
a distance?) you could be mistaken
for thinking this is Kick Off, The aerial
view, the small players and the
smooth scrolling pitch certainly strike
a glaring resemblance to the top footy
kick about. In terms of playability
however, it's (obviously) completely
different, because this is Rugby
Union, not football!

SWING LOUI. SWEET CHARIOT

Initially you must decide whether to
play a two player game, a single
match involving ore human and a
computer simulated opponent or a
fulfy fledged tournament, The latter
option allows you to play the part of
any or all of the sixteen countries
competing for the 1991 title. The

WORLD Clip IIRir-THEM!

The^Rugby World Cup was
apparently the third biggest
sporting event in the world after
the Olympic Games and soccer's
own World Cup. It consisted of
32 matches altogether played at
no less than 19 venues and
attracted television audiences of
over two billion.

In all, there are 16 teams that
took part En the final which were
split into tour pools. The initial
part of the tbum&ment was a
league based system, where the
winner and runner-up of each
pool qualified for the second part,
the knockout stage. Eight teams
remained and had to battle to the
death. The eventual winners,
New Zealand, became the World
Cup holders for the next four
years, when rt will all start again.

Once you’ve scored a try, the viewpoint changes to display a convmion attempt. Alt you need to
do is stop the white cursor between the sticks.

team you pick determines the
strength, speed and overall skill of
your team.

Playing the game is a doddle.
You control your players using the
joystick to run around the pitch. The
player you control Is highlighted by a
line beneath his body. Using the fire
button, you can pass the ball to the
left and right, or punt the ball forward.

WAGGLE. DON’T HAGGLE

To tackle a player in possession,
simply run into him and hope for the
best. Very frequently this results in a

scrum down, where all the players
push hard in an attempt to gain
possession. The strength of your
scrum is determined by your joystick
skills. The faster you waggle, the
greater your chance of success.

Once you've managed to run the
ball over the line (a try) the display
switches to a picture of the posts. In
the Centre of the
screen is a moving
cursor which must be
stopped between the
posts to score a
deserved conversion.

This is another in a long line of impression
releases that follows a similar style , In that it
draws its inspiration from table top wargames
using miniature figurines. The control system will
be familiar to anybody who has played the
previous impression releases (Rorkes Drift
Cohort and the tike) and is parte easy to pick up,
but the gamepfay is unfortunately tacking. Out of
the series. Ibis is most definitely the best of alt
the games, but it still fails to impress me to a
great extent. Without any doubt, a case of Try

The usual bounding from platform to platform over the typical had guy in a familiar nasty Infested
world. Still, at least you know what to expect before buying the game.

Different weapons can be
activated by pressing the relevant 'F'

Wearing the latest in
designer rags and
brandishing a rather
decrepit short sword,
you, as Hagar, must
roam the screens of
platforms in the search for the
necessary items to continue onto the
next level.

There are usually four objects to
find which are all graphically displayed
in their full glory to you previous to
your forthcoming capers.

Each level is inhabited by a
variety of unfriendly foes, from killer
caterpillars to knights in unpolished
armour. Pressing fire will cause you to
fiercely jab your sword at any of your
nearby opponents,

By keeping the fire button
depressed, a gauge at the base of the
screen shows your sword increasing
in size. When you release the fire
button, your jab will have much more
power, proving considerably more
effective against those that are
able to absorb a number of hits.

keys. This causes the appropriate
weapon to shoot into your foe.

As each weapon can only be
used once, shops are thankfully
scattered about the levels where you
are able to replenish your armoury.
There are even fireball spells and
Smart Sombs.

Youll need all the firepower you
can possibly get your hands on to
defeat the end-of-level guardians!

Shopkeepers require money. This
can be gathered by finding precious
jewels which are then converted to
hard cash. Also, you can pay a visit to
the local tavern where you can buy
ale have a hearty snack and try a
little gambling if you feel lucky.

How can you die? Well, you have
an energy gauge that depletes should
you come into contact
with an enemy or fall
into deep water.

Lose all your lives
and it's the chop for
you my laddie!

creation 01A nation

A perfect world eh?
Everybody living in
harmony, zero
unemployment, a
functional ozone layer,
no adversaries and an
endless supply ol cash. Sounds
appealing doesn't it? Utopia veterans
won t agree, they're used to it. For the
past several months they've been
busily creating this ideal world and
soon they'll be ready for more.

Gremlin are well aware of this and
they're ready to quench their thirst in
the shape of data disks and, towards
the end of 1992. a sequel to the highly
acclaimed Utopia. Not bad going
considering that just over a year ago,
Utopia was just a glint in Graeme Ing s
eye. u Sim City originally sparked off
the idea," admits Ing; “I'm not putting
Sim City down in any way cos it’s a
classic game. I just felt it could have
contained so much more. Basically, I
really wanted to create a much bigger
and better version of Sim City."

Without further ado, Graeme
began to develop Utopia under his
own development label, Celestial
software. Robert Crack who is
currently at university and hence will
play no pari in Utopia 2, was Ing’s
right hand man along with graphic
artist and the enigmatic five star
McDonald’s expert Bern! (his surname
remains a mystery).

The media immediately pigeon
holed Utopia with several other God
style games, which annoyed Ing.

"When we came up with the idea,
there weren’t any God games around,
apart from Populous of course And,
to be quite honest, Utopia shouldn't
have been given this label because
it's nothing like a God game

Utopia took approximately one
year to create. This Includes the
several weeks writing up the spec.

w ! planned the game out
completely from start to finish which
took several weeks and a lot of paper.

That’s how t like to work Following
this, 1 tried out a few base routines to
see if the whole thing was feasible. 1 ’ It
was, and one year on Utopia was
released and immediately leapt to the
top of the charts.

Before Utopia 2 is devised.
Gremlin plan to release a data disk
containing a further ten scenarios.

"The only obvious changes will be
cosmetic," says !ng r "But the player
will have to incorporate new strategies
to defend against different alter
attacks. It wont be totally
revolutionary though 1 that’s reserved
for Utopia 21"

Gremlin hope to release Utopia 2
towards the end of 1992, At the
moment it's still at the ideas stage,
although on a change has already
been decided upon. Possibly the
biggest drawback with Utopia was the
omission of a visible alien city from
the play area. Sending your forces
into unknown territory left a lot to the
imagination. Ing was quick to agree.

"Yes, the actual alien
confrontation was an anti-climax, in
Utopia 2 the enemy city will be on the
map. Once your forces arrive you'll be
able to identify the most important
building and instruct your forces to
destroy it directly."

This wonlt be enough to satisfy
most game players, so what else can
we expect?

"A lot more alien intelligence. I am
currently working on some incredibly
complex algorithms. I'm going to cram
in as much artificial intelligence as 1
possibly can and hopefully try to get
the alien races to react to whatever
you're doing.”

Whatever Graeme Ing and
Gremlin are doing in 1992 will
doubtless be watched very carefully.
Graeme doesn't dig the fame and
glamour that comes with games
programming, but if Utopia 2 is any
more impressive than its predecessor,
he'll find it very difficult to avoid.

Published games of the past?

BSS Jane Seymour, Raider (a thrust
clone) and before that a couple of
budget sport games.

How long have you been
programming?

Easily about 10 to 12 years.
Naturally I started on e-bit and
worked my way up

How did your programming career
take off?

Raider was the first game to earn
me any money, but BSS Jane
Seymour introduced me to Gremlin.

Has the success of Utopia changed
your life in any way?

No not really, apart from me finding
full time employment with Gremlin,
ft's nice to have the guaranteed
backing of such a big company.

What games do you enjoy playing ?
My favourite all times games in no
particular order are: Dungeon
Master, Sim City and Elite, As a
whole I prefer strategy games.

influential books?

Fantasy and sci-fi books, William
Gibson Cyberpunk books. Ringworfd
and Forever War in particular
influenced the outcome of Utopia,

Favourite films?

Blade Runner and Allens.

Is the future looking good as far as
the Amiga is concerned ?

1 reckon it's got at least another five
years in it yet. Starting from now \
feel that most games will be one
meg only, Utopia 2 for instance, is
almost definitely going to be one
meg only.

Platform games and shoofem-
ups will move towards the console
market, whereas big strategy games
will make up the majority of the
Amiga, market.

Personal ambitions for the future ?
Fm hoping to get involved with
Virtual Reality. It's just a matter of
waiting for the big companies to get
involved and the hardware to
become available.

Essentially, though, they’re both
exactly the same,

FIVE WAVS TO DIE

In alL there are five elements to
Robocop 3:

Firstly, driving. Take to the city
streets in your Robomobile. Holy
metallic mayhem! It’s the bad guys
charging around the city in an
unmarked van. Track them down by
utilising the town map in the corner of
the screen, then ram them off the road
to apprehend the crims. Be wary of
the van doors at the back of the van
for they can open to reveal trigger-
happy armed men.

Secondly, the street fight. Nothing
like a good brawl, especially when
you're equipped with the latest in
machine-guns. Blast the
street punks before they
blast you ,

Thirdly, the hostage
situation. The bad guys have
got the good guys held captive in
a tower building. You must
infiltrate, and dispose of, the bad
guys - being careful that you don’t
shoot the innocents.

Wander through the many rooms,
unleashing volleys of bullets at the
terrorists. With unlimited bullets,
you’ve no need to be conservative’

Fourthly, flying. On with your
gyropack and take to the skies. Fly
through a battfezone, combatting
tanks, aircraft and artillery. Detroit was
never like this on the TV!

And finally {haven't I heard that
somewhere before?) hand to hand
combat The robotic equivalent to
Bruce Lee confronts Robocop. Can

Refrain from shooting the walking wounded or your efficiency level wifi
. No had guys here so you'd hotter explore elsewhere.

As you took through Robocop s eyes, you are confronted by a terrorist. With quick retoes end a
carefully aimed shot you gim him down. Mow you must determine very quickly whether the man
with him is friend or foe.

somebody or something wifi leap out ot the darkness to interrupt the peace - usually it s a gttrt
wielding psychopath intent on reducing yon In metal tilings.

you chop it to fragments or are you
doomed to be humiliated by the
oriental inspired foe? Gripping, isn't it?
Actually it is!

All scenes feature 3D graphics
with the action played from a number
of possible viewpoints (first person
perspective, side-on, from behind
Robocop, and so on).

During play, Robocop is given an
efficiency rating. Each time Robo
shoots an innocent person, is shot
himself, or collides his car with other
road users who have no evil
inclinations whatsoever, the rating is
reduced little by little.

ALL-IMPORTANT EFFICIENCY

The same happens with any negative
outcome as the result of Robocop's
actions, so ensure he does his job
satisfactorily. Should his efficiency
drop to 0% from 99%. he’s out of the
fracas and has to begin ail over again.

Between stages, news readers

appear to inform you of the current
situation. They also tell you about
forthcoming events and what will face
you on the next level. It's iucky that

the metallic shell of Robocop, you realise that the
game s a great credit to the bard work that 's gone
into programming it. Graphics are smooth and
fast while the in-game music complements the
gameptay to a highly absorbing degree. There s
action, excitement, and a feeling of power as you
gun your way through the bad guys. Robocop 3 is
different than Ocean s typical movie conversions
and. surprisingly, if deserves to he a hit! Is this
the beginning ot a series of unusually spectacular
film titles from Ocean ? Hope so! Alan

ARCADE ADVENTURE

The in-game driving scene is conducted in a vary unusual and impressionistic fashion. The whole
aura is futuristic, smooth and speedy with attractive, solid graphics Nonetheless, its stilt a case of
chasing the bad guys in society, Go to it, Hobo!

In the car with Robocop. You 're gaining on your target but,as you close in. the rear doors of the
van suddenly fly open and a burst of gunfire sprays the road ahead ot you. Dodge and weave away
from the enemy fire as you try to ram him off the road.

The end at game Ninja
just doesn 't want to
give in. Unfortunately,
you can oniy punch him
as your lethal machine
guns are rendered

25 LIFE
SAUIHG TIPS

1: Firstly, a helpful hardware tip . To avoid monotonous
disk swapping: load up tlra map screen from the Game
Disk and leave the Scenario Disk in the drive. This
enables you lo access the map screen and read spy
reports without swapping disks. Access the advisers via
the function keys ,

2: Some of the info available on the Advisor information
panels Is not updated until the beginning of each month.
Get into the habit of looking at the advisers on the
second day of each month.

3:Make sum you keep a good spread of Flux Pods
throughout your colony. Build a grid of them if
necessary, 12 spaces apart. This way you can expand
outwards very quickly without the worry of constructing
Flux Pods.

4; Build a second Command Centre as soon as possible.
You are severely hampered if your only Command
Centre is destroyed,

5: Several hospitals have a greater effect upon the
Quality of Life rating.

6: At the beginning put plenty of
money into the research grants, build
Laboratories and recruit Scientists. Ensure
you maintain adequate grants.

7: if you have a power shortage and are under attack ,
build Missile Launchers instead of Laser Turrets, since
Turrets require toads of power.

8: To easily locate Ore and Fuel deposits , enter the map
screen and position markers over a patch of Ore or Fuel.
Exit the Map Screen and build either a Mine or Chemical
plant over the markers.

9: Try an avoid building Power Station since they
produce hazardous waste products and upset your
colonists, instead build loads of solar panels. It may
even be necessary to build a few extra Flux Pods to store

power
during Solar
Eclipses ■

10: Build plenty of Tank
Construction Yards around the
perimeter of your colony, so that tanks
are ready to engage the enemy.

11: Always move tanks to unprotected parts of your
colony. Ideally you should have small groups of tanks
dotted around everywhere

12: IIyou’re desperately short of money, build
Workshops and Stows and sett the tech goods that you
have produced.

13: At the start of the game t put Income tax straight up
to 20% and tower it a few percent at a time. Once ynts ro
rich, reduce your taxation level to 0 % to ready make
your people happy!

14: if you 're having trouhie moving tanks around an
obstacle build another marker in another direction and
send the tank to that marker first.

IS: Never send tanks and ships to enemy cities in dribs
and drabs. Build up d massive army of about 80 tanks
and 10 warships, then hit 'em hardf

16: Maintain roads of about two spaces wide so that
tanks can move without restriction

17: Once you've developed the Land Mine, drop ’em
right in front of the enemyf

21: Use the number keys
to position markers quickly.

22: increase military and research grants
by equal amounts. This wifi ensure a regular
flow of new inventions.

23: Try and keep your intelligence level to at least
normal and ensure your grant remains topped up. Fail to
follow this rule will result in a tack of new developments
and your laboratories and scientists wifi be wasted.

24: When you construct a new building, recruit staff at
the same time. This way. you'II have people ready to
start work almost immediately, To stop production
simpiy lay off parts of your work force.

25: Save up your money , and buy the Utopia Scenario
disk as soon as it's released According to Gremlin we
they should be available about now. Utopia 2 is planned
for later this year. Check out this month s feature on

ACTION

LEVEL 3

One of your vital music-making pieces of
equipment can be found here, in the jail With
Arnie lookalike guards, you’ll have to have a
good spring in your step to leap out of their
way. Can Etwood or Jake complete this holy
caper? They can nowl

JUST CALL ME SPIDEY

You begin the level in an innocent enough
looking place. Wander to the right and grab
hold of the wire mesh. In a style that
Spiderman would be proud of, clamber along
the mesh until you reach the far right. Once
there, duck and crawl into the building.

Continue right, grab a box, jump up
andover the oversized rat, go up the ladder,
launch the box at the bazooka-blasting nasty,
and then chortle with glee at your eminently
successful manoeuvre!

REAM NEUI HEIGHTS

Walk right and fall off the rooftop. Step off to
the right again but push the joystick left when
falling. Now follow the map to the left, taking a
box with you. Dispose of the bad guys and
puli the lever to open the locked door.

Head into the small sewer section as
shown on the map. By following the path, you
will eventually come across another lever,
which, surprisingly enough, you should pull.
This opens a door located just before you
entered the sewer, so go back to there.

IS IT A BUM?

Proceed left (I hope you?© following all these
directions!}* and climb down the ventilation
shaft that's also shown on the map. Leap to
the right at the bottom, or you will suffer as
you land on the spikes.

Right is now the way to go, Bro. Simply
follow the passageways. You will soon
emerge in a large, open room. Bounce up the
platforms and you will find the object of your
desires, half way up and to the right.

The entrance to the room ts at the top
right. Keep to the platforms to avoid the
massive pit of spikes just waiting to stab you.
Not far to go at this stage.

Now place a peg on your nose and delve
deep into the sewers. Again, follow the map.
in the final section, beware the electric
thingummies. The platforms are moving so
you'll have to think quickly. Climb down the
tong ladder and you’ve row made it onto the
fourth level. Wowzers!

AMIGA

ACTION

You're going to have to Jose a little cred as
you take a long swim in your designer suit
- somewhat embarrassing but necessary.
Still, who's going to see when your
adventures on this level take place under
ground? Oh well, here we go.

This level begins with you clinging onto a
ladder, above water and platforms. When
walking about the platforms, you will be
hassled by your foes. However, by
jumping into the water, you are able to
swim to the right and pop up at the other
end, hence avoiding and fooling the
enemy creatures, Very sneaky.

Use the same dive and swim principle
to reach the far right of the map, Once
there, drop onto the underground train.
Run left along the top of the carriages. If
you should fall onto the track, beware of
the bad guys around you as they are
running amok. Prepare to jump over them
at an instance f

Where now? Weil, dive into the long
tunnel filled with water. The swirling
current will push you through, and out at
the other end. The many records to the
right can be collected but this 3s very
dangerous, due to the stezting electricity
on the end of each platform. It's safer to
just press on to the left.

Work your way up the platforms. Leap
onto the ledge to the left. Not too bad, was
it? Hmmm, the problem now is that
nobody at Amiga Action has gone farther
than this! We II do our best to guide you
but be wary of surprises!

We presume you must now take the
plunge into the water far below. Swim
along the route shown. The item required
on this level appears to be toward the
bottom right of the water-filled caverns (the
icon depicting the two brothers).

Now rise to the surface. Take a hike to
the right and you have the option of going
two ways. You'll have to sort this one out
yourself as we don't know what is lurking
around here!

Swim down the narrow channel and
follow it round. Float back up to the
surface and there's the finishing flag!

Hers uie go again with vet awotner dose of
sensational lips lor tne fantiieus Rowland.
Hopefully, you'll nave already named your
wav through the first n levels of mayhem
and be ready and willing to scale the
remaining part ol the tower and finally
rescue your darling molherl

GENERAL HINTS MID TIPS
(PART TWO)

Things should begin to start hotting up very
soon, so with any luck you'll have gained
around seven or eight lives at least on the
first few 20 odd levels, If not, there's not
much chance of completing the game so
attempt to gain a few extra lives on the first
few levels of the second part of the tower.
Towards the end of the game you wart to be
able to concentrate on destroying the

f \ of where it is about to drop and fire as
^1 fast as possible.

Unfortunately, there's no pattern to
/ the its movement so ensure you
S J move fast when ft stops and try not to

get cornered. Ignore those useless
a| \ platforms positioned to the left and
-4 right of the screen.

When you're stuck in a tight spot,
use your rod to throw a nasty around. This
ensures that any other nasties to either your
left or right get knocked out of the way too.
Also remember that it's impossible to throw
your enemies around near to the edge of the
screen. They tend just to jump up the side
wall and come back down again -
unscathed- So make sure you
leave plenty of room t

down either side.

The last guardian ,

is by far the hardest. So ^

far, none of the lads here
at Amiga Action have Hidnfj
managed to do it without using jJJr
at least three lives. The . Jwt fc
guardian itself is initially small i gfi
and increases in size the
more times you hit it. When faqr j

if s small, beware of the small /W/R j
leaps - they're very -ywf

deceiving. When ifs big, it JNji* J J
-7 simply moves left and JUf IfV ]
/ right. Try to memorise yH9||
' its moves and always MjKjf I^Kw
blast away as many mEf lffiBf
times as possible once
you've died and the JMH
invulnerability period

is activated, IqI

enemies as quickly JF B * Nj

as possible. Ideally z*' ^7

you should be able to ft %

just blast the nasties A
immediately and gain a YJftfJlfc
few bonus points. \ V t

Some of the later levels ^43 A V
are designed in such a way Ic

that all the enemies l
(particularly spuds, who II
mate to make matters even
worse) congregate at the bottom and make it
very difficult to move in and take them out.
Remember, don't risk too many lives
attempting to kill them all. Simply wait around
in a safe position until the nasties convert into
blue meanfes and disappear. This way T it's
possible to progress in complete safety.

Don't rely on balloons to collect flowers
half way up the screen, Instead, take a
balloon to the platform above and build a
downwards ladder. Wait until any nasties
have passed by and simply crawl down,

collect the - - s

flowers and Jr
climb back f

up again. # \

Wait at the bottom of

ground. Stand immediately to the left or right

Gremlin have really built themselves
an enormous reputation over the Iasi
year tor releasing some really spatting
products This month, they have taken
on the enviable reputation of being an
integral part of one of Amiga Action's
mega competitions.

In Line with past compos, we were
looking tor a prize of epic proportions
and Gremlin, being the hip and trendy
dudes thal they are, came up with the
goods - a fab video recorder for the
lucky winner plus five runners up
prizes of VideoKid, signed by the
programmer and graphic artist, as and
when if hits the streets. So now you
know exactly what it is you re lelting
yourself in lor let's have a brief
description ol the game

SQUARE EVES

You play the part of VideoKid. a young
boy with noiliing better else to do than
watch loads of tv One day. mum and
dad buy a gleaming new video
recorder and you decide to hue a film
when they are out.

Suddenly, as you are settling
down to watch this latest blockbuster
you begin to experience a very odd
sensation Suddenly everything starts
to swirl around and you fee! yourself
being pulled mto ihe VCR.

For a few seconds you are dazed,
then find yourself in the middle of an
ancient medieval world, as a mighty
wizard You suddenly realise that you
have to escape from all ol the

programs on the VCR to get back to
the real world.

The action takes place over a
horizontally scrolling play area which
pits you against loads of nasties
throughout different TV programs,
such as medieval, western and space.
There are five wo rids in all. which get
progressively harder. Icons can be
collected throughout adding score
bonuses, extra lives and enhanced
weaponry. Sc far. VideoKid is looking
extremely good. Will Gremlin ever
release a toady?

UIHAT’S THE CRACK?

Simple enough! VideoKid takes on
several different guises throughout hi®
adventures and two of these include a
wizard and a cowboy, fheso two
images are shown opposite but their
duplications on the entry form have
five alterations We want you to ring

breaker question In no more than 20
words Then send it off to us at the

Five Runner-up
Prises of Signed
VIDEO KID
Games!

I’m sure you’re all
aware of holes in the
ozone layer, glowing
Eskimos and acid rain
which the silliest of us
tried to drink in an
effort to get high until BBC2
enlightened us with yawn-pmvoking
documentaries. Don't forget CFCs
which people thought were a branch
of the KGB, until me likes of Blue
Peter demonstrated that this was a
misconception and insisted that spies
can’t hide in aerosol cans.

Robozone is yet another form of
pressure that tries to persuade you to
think green. In fact, it s shoved down
your throat throughout the manual,
with messages like, "Try to avoid

noise pollution;’ This means, don’t
turn up the volume on your monitor or
you'll give listeners a headache - not
a very good advertisement for their
musical programming abilities!

MP OR HOT TO BE

Okay, okay, less of the harshness,
but you don’t want to have serious
social issues directed at you when
you sit down to relax with a computer
game. Leave it for party political
broadcasts, TV and radio news, and
Blue Peter!

Essentially, Robozone is a
shoot'em-up. Your objective is to
infiltrate the aliens' stronghold and
destroy whatever is emitting
pollutants from there. This involves a

The intro sequence is rather dark and
atmospheric, concerning the arrival of alien
swarms You retaliate with a burst at
machine-gun fire as they swoop down at you

number of scenarios from exploring
underground tunnels to negotiating
city streets until you ultimately reach
their base. Once there, you must
enter the 'Furnace', as the aliens’
place is called, and kill the head
honcho to restore clean air back to
the environment.

SPICE OF LIFE

Each level is implemented differently.
The first is a four-way scrolling
platform shootem up where you must
discover the exit that leads from the
tunnels and info the streets.

There's nothing complicated as
you move up, down, left, right, and
shoot. Bonus weapons can also be
collected as well as energy capsules
that regenerate your energy bar.

Level Two is a 3D scrolling blast
as you walk into the screen, while
Level Three sees you converted into
a flying craft which is reminiscent of
R-Type. To emphasise the dangers
of pollution, there is a gauge at the
base of the screen that increases the
longer you play.

This gauge measures the level of
pollution in the air and will continue to

increase as you
venture through the
stages. Basically, it's
a glorified way of
incorporating a time
limit into the game!

With a ridiculously tong first level and not the
best gameplay you’re likely in come across r
you’ll he lucky if you reach the second level
as you wifi suffer from a severe perseverance
problem Graphics are downright uninspiring
while the music and sound effects fail to
salvage the game from rmse-diving into the
basement of the Amiga Action Shoot'em-up
league. As much as I respect Image Works for
titles tike The Kilting Cloud and Mega-lo-
Meflia, Robozone runs dangerously dose fo
reducing that level of respect, and proves to
be a rather embarrassing anomaly on the
Image Works label. Alan

I heart of ancient
Japan, a young
IMfc- samurai and his
far master combed the

^— - streets collecting

taxes from the local peasants. All was
well until the evil Demon King left his
mountain perch and reigned terror on
the village people {was that before or
after YMCA?). Soon after, the entire
village was trashed and the
inhabitants brutally murdered. The
samurai's master stood forth and
challenged the demon to a fight to the
death. Fifteen minutes later, the
master was dying on the floor, blood
pouring from gaping wounds.

For years after this the good
people of the hills fought bravely in an
attempt to defeat the evil demon.
Eventually, a saviour arrived from the
high seas. The Wizard-Mage and his
arsenal of magic were the last hope.
They fought night alter night, lightning
and fire keeping the skies aglow, until
the demon, fearing defeat, launched
himself into the future.

The evil Demon King descends from hi$
mountain throne.

Nothing is straightforward. Hers you must retrieve the tog
progress, hut it's guarded by a fire-breathing dragon.

To complete a level, several
obstacles must be overcome. The
immediate danger is provided by the
hordes of adversaries. To begin
with, these take the shape of bats,
fire breathing dragons and rats.
Most are destroyed by a single hit
and stay dead, others take several
hits and occasionally return after
death. As the levels Increase in
difficulty, so does the intelligence
and strength of the minions.

The other immediate danger is
the landscape as the entire
background is animated. This allows
for huge burning pits and massive,
full screen waterfalls. Each must be
overcome in one way or another,
sometimes only with the aid of the
Wizard-Mage.

SLICINGHDICING

You begin your quest without the
magic sword. Once you've collected
sufficient Mystical Energy, {which is
measured by the length of The
sword on the status panel) the
sword will appear and remain yours
until the Mystical Energy Rating

drops beneath 50%.

Mystical energy is used in other
situations too. For instance,
Regeneration Pots are scattered
throughout each landscape. A
charged pot marks the position on the
landscape to where our hero will be
returned when you lose a life or
transport via a magic potion. To
activate a pot, a large amount of
Mystical Power must be invested and
therefore, you may have to part with
your sword.

Obviously, there are several other
objects which are of some use: bells
summon the magic power of the
Wizard-Mage, food baskets top up out
hero's strength, treasure chests
contain rich rewards and swords,
axes and grenades provide long
range weaponry. At the end of each
level most of these items are provided
In bulk so you begin the following
level at full strength.

However, this all
depends on whether
you can destroy the
massive end-oHevel
guardian first..

The animated backgrounds ensure that on-
screen obstacles are in abundance. Flaming
pits , such as this, prove very popular.

m itu The main character of

Ul jjfeill the game is on a
1 MflJSffll rescue mission to
; JB(rS®j| save his father who
has been Kidnapped
1 by a fanatical group of

terrorists 1 the reason being that the
boy’s father, a scientist by trade, has
been dabbling in mutation and DNA
transformation. The information has
leaked out that he has discovered the
secret of how to mix DNA to create
new breeds of mutation.

Consequently, the terrorists have
caught wind of his discovery and
kidnapped htm in the hope that he

would build a machine that could
perform the transformations for them.

On hearing of his fathers
kidnapping, the boy sneaked into his
father’s laboratory and deliberately
performed a DMA transformation - on
himself. The revisit was a muscle
bound hero who ^oitld change inlo a
wolf. Pleased with his brand new alter
ego, the hero set off after the terrorists
in a battle to the death in order to save
his befoved father.

on THE LEVEL

The action takes place over six nicety
drawn levels of multidirectional

scrolling backdrops, the first being a
massive spaceship that is soaring
through the clouds.

The hero starts off as a man but
as he progresses, picking up extra

floors which the character must slide
down or run up.

Collision detection proved
awkward with an angled slope but

with determination the problem was
eventually solved. When the character
charges up a slope his movement
speed is impaired to give the effect of

struggling up the slope which works
extremely well.

A great deal of the sprites and
backgrounds are obviously inspired
from comic book art which Simon, the

LEAGUE GATING

0 V

graphic artist, loves to
read - his present
faves being the all-
time classic Batman
and Frank Miller's
Elekfra Assassin.

» ^ -i.. , + M

Although there are similarities between
Wolfchiid and Stridor, it is stilt one hell of a
game. Technically it is superb, the graphics
being very atmospheric, especially the
lightning effects when the main character
changes into a wolf. The collision detection is
very convincing particularly on sipping
surfaces. The scrolling is exceptionalty
smooth and considering the speed at which
the game moves, plus the matthilrwtimat
scrolling, this is some achievement within
itself ; Definitely recommended to shooVem*
up freaks, Core certainly look set to have
another winner under their belts. Steve

weapons and bonuses, he changes
into a wo if man packing some pretty
nasty weaponry.

Each level is allocated a certain
style, for example, the second level is
set In the forest with appropriate
woodland nasties and the third set in a
kind of Aztec temple that is crawling
with creepy insects that are, as you
might expect, just that little bit larger
than life.

At the end of a level there is an
end-of-leve! guardian that must be hit
several time in order for it to explode,
Only then can our metamorphosing
wolverine character progress onto the
next stage.

DON'T GET TECHNICAL

All the graphics for Wolfchiid are
developed on the ST using the
renowned OCP Art studio due to its
excellent sprite creation abilities.
Unfortunately, there isn't a decent
sprite creator on the Amiga so this is
why the ST is used.

One of the toughest problems for
the programmers was the 45 degree

IT'S SO CUTE

This is where you take over. The
apprentice's spelf hasn’t worked as
expected and instead of materialising
a pair of cute fluffy bunny slippers he
has managed to mutate himself and
the rest of the castle's
UT inhabitants into strange
balls of fuzz.

’ The object of the

j jfiy game is to move around the
J$r castle’s 50 levels and return
i/ everybody back to their normal
selves. This is made harder by
having to complete puzzles along
the way, having to collect gems and
other items to replace those used in
casting the big spell and fuzzbatls
that don't want to become human
again. As If that isn't enough, you

The fuzzballs are destroyed by
blasting them with a magical bolt.

If you don’t manage to get hold of
them quickly, the extra magical

nab them or their energy becomes so
dangerous that they blow up.

THE MEDIEVAL DEAD

Throughout the castle there are
several areas that are decorated in
different styles. As well as the
standard medieval decor you will also
visit the gardens, an oriental type of
place and a rather cold dungeon that
has ice over the Floors, Each of the
areas is Ailed with loads of rooms to
make a grand total of 50 levels.

Each is different from the others
and requires thought and skill to
complete. Many are set out in a
manner that asks you to move
around the platforms in a set pattern
to eliminate all the fuzzballs and

to drop into a hole from which you
can’t free yourself (or similar dead

years they've been
successful in robbing well equipped

keeping a low profile and avoiding the

three years imprisonment.

Two years on and the couple
were released for good behavior and
immediately reformed their strange

partnership in crime. One night they
were sitting quietly watching

mysterious stranger appeared
bizarrely before them.

ufL

Whenever fighting
breaks out anywhere
around the world the
media and news
reports always
concentrate on the
land and air offensives that take
place. This may make you think that
these are the most important aspects
of any confrontation, but in reality the
result of the Nava! engagement can
decide the outcome of any war.

There is a reason for this. If the
cargo vessels containing ammunition
and other supplies cannot reach the
battlefield where the troops are
fighting the offensive will slow down

and eventually gnnd to a halt. Without
bullets and weapons you can’t fight
the enemy!

In Strike Fleet you take on the
role of a Naval Task Force
Commander. At your disposal are the
best ships in the British Navy and you
must take them into a war zone and
fake control of the sea. You are
responsible for completing the
mission that has been assigned to
you. be it merely a simple patrol or a
full scale wan

BIG DECISION

After reading the mission briefing for
the war zone you must enter, it is
time to organise a task force to
command. The total number of
vessels at your disposal is defined by
the scenario but you can make your
choice from a total of ten different
ship classes.

These range from the relatively
small Pegasus Hydrofoil to the
massive Trieonderoga. The mix of
ships that you decide upon is left up
to you but the correct decision will
make you task much easier.

GENERAL QUARTERS

Once out into the open seas, you are
on your own. Radar and sonar
reports provide you with information
regarding nearby ships and using
your maps and charts it is possible to
locate the enemy and plan your
attacks against them.

Your own helicopters can be

The vigilance that they keep
provides a constant
watch on the
immediate area, both
above and below water.

With this additional
protection it is extremely
difficult for an enemy craft,
including submarines, in order to
set up an ambush.

BATTLE STATIONS

After pinpointing the enemy positions
you must devise a plan to neutralise
them. Helicopters prove their worth
once again at this stage of the action.

Using advanced targeting devices
and laser guided weapons it is
possible to destroy targets that your
ships cannot even see. A helicopter
can be sent to patroi
miles in front of your
ships and, with a carbon
laser, it can illuminate 1 '
any targets encountered.

It is then a simple matter to
launch a missile from one of your
ships and it will follow the laser
towards the target. Using this and
other more

sophisticated
techniques you can
score kills without
endangering your
own ships.

Having your own warship to

to kill you. Strike Fleet allows you
to experience all the excitement of
warfare without the danger of
being blown into little pieces.
Wbal is even more amazing Is
that we are giving you a chance to
get a copy for tree. All you have to
do is answer the question below,

Until recently, the cavitation
effects of Russian propellers were
far worse than those of the j

have to tell us which company
sold the machine to the Russians.

terrain. Your armies are denoted by a
coloured diamond as are the
enemy’s. With the limited number of
turns you are given {remembering
that mountains, marshes, forests and
other annoying geographical features
slow you down), you must decide
upon whether to reinforce your
armies, attack nearby foes, or
venture into the wilderness as part of
a long-term strategy.

MAGIC REWARDS

Fortunately, you are given a base in
the form of a castle. Here, you will
find a magic pentacle which will
increase your Magic Points at the end
of every turn.

It also allows you to invoke extra
characters which you can order
about. The number of people on your
side determines what
bonus Magic Points
you should receive.

And what are Magic
Points for? Yourself and
some members of your parties
are magic users. This allows you
to cast a selection of spells at your
enemies when in combat, such as
fireballs, a bloodsucking

MOUEAHV MOUNTAIN

In combat, you are given noticeable
advantages over the enemy by
attacking from elevated positions,
because spells cannot be cast past
trees, mountains and
other large physical
obstructions. If Eskel

game is over and you have to

For the ultimate in defence and
offence, you are able to construct a
fortress - for a price of 2000 Magic

With many battles to fight through

your magic and investing in the
formidable building.

can quickly ease yourself into the game is an
important positive factor. The game 1$ very

(Above) The isometric map displays the hole s
you are about to play and the nearest hole to Z
that one. Adjusting the direction in which the H
bail travels is a simple matter of clicking the =
mouse anywhere on tha course. The direction £
of your shot can be finely tuned fust before you m
take your shot.

(Below) To successfully retrieve the bail from
a sand trap you must hit the halt as straight
and as firmly as possible. A had shot may only
move the bail a couple of inches .

Ever since Access
Software developed
Leaderboard on the
CS4 over five years
ago, the baste format
of Golf simulations
has changed very tittle. PGA Tour
Golf is still out in front, despite the
fact that the playability isn't greatly
superior to that of Leaderboard, The
sheer simplicity of Leaderboard

ensures its steady popularity among
many Amiga enthusiasts.

Never ones to miss out on a
simulation opportunity, Microprose
have attempted to take this
surprisingly popular theme one step
further by adding an extra dimension.
The documentation provided with
Microprose Golf correctly states that
tfs impossible to judge the accuracy
of a shot on a 2D screen because

the ball cannot be seen clearly once
it has been hit,

However, 1 felt that the changing
viewpoint provided in PGA Tour Go if
overcame this tricky problem quite
nicety. Anyway, on with the review of
the aptly named Microprose Golf.

MATCH PLAY GOLF

Before a shot can be taken, the type
of game and the number of players
must be decided. Beginners to the
game may wish to grasp the basics
of the game on either the driving
range or the practice green. The
ambitious however, will no doubt
relish the chance to move straight
into a full tournament.

A plethora of playing options are
available ranging from 72 hole
tournaments to simple human versus
human encounters. Unfortunately, we
haven’t got the capacity to describe
each tournament in full. The 100
page manual supplied with
Microprose Golf gives an accurate
run down of each.

A maximum of four players can
participate in the majority of
competitions. Firstly, you'll be asked
to enter the human player's name
then decide whether to play with a
handicap or at novice level. The
differences between the two skill
levels become apparent once the
match starts, therefore well detail
those later.

You'll then be prompted to insert
a course disk with a view to selecting
a course. Six courses are supplied
altogether, spread over two disks.

Even though the game is played in 3D, five different earners

positions are provided tor your experience „ Whenever you

are looking at a shot view you will have the

option to change the position of each of

the canters viewpoints. Its even ^npsBKSgl

possible to follow the hall all the i \

way down me fairway. V ^

2) Takes you on a quick journey around the course.

3} Proceed Icon/lake shot.

4) Fine direction adjustment

5) Wind indicator displaying strength and hi reef ion.

6} The outer circle of the swingometer determines shot power.
7) The swingometers inner circle determines honk and slice,

Driving is one of Golf s most Important shots. A good drive can
lead to a dramatic reduction in your score, Therefore r it s
( . imperative that the height of the tee is
\ L. positioned correctly, A high tee results in a
stl 0 t. therefore it s not always wise

The courses supplied are the figment
of a very wild andvivid imagination
and even the likes of Ian Woosnam
and Nick Faldo may struggle if asked
to participate.

TEEING OFF

The match can now effectively begin.
An isometric view of the current hole
is displayed which can
be rotated through 90
degrees. Both the tee
position and ftag are
cfearly highlighted along with
an abundance of information
relating to the player, hole and
potential of the selected club. A
white line extends from the base of
the bail and this represents the path
which the bail should take if it is
struck perfectly.

At the bottom of the isometric
display window there are a number of
selectable icons which allow you to
measure the wind, after your stance,
select a club and even after both the
height and position of the tee.
Thankfully, it's not imperative to alter
all of these untii you're entirely
comfortable with the basics, as the
computer will handle this side of
things to a certain degree.

The screen will now switch to
display the main viewing window. At

this stage the camera is positioned
behind the golfer, but this can be
altered once the shot is taken or used
to follow the ball in 3D down the
fairway! All the usual hole and player
information is displayed, Once that
you've made any final adjustments to
your direction, youTe ready to take
the shot,

FORE!

In true Golf simulation
style, a swingometer
system is employed. This
comprises of two circular lines
around the golfer. The outer
circle determines shot strength,
while the inner circle governs the
amount of hook or slice you impart on
the ball.

Putting is an extremely tricky
affair. An Isometric grid is portrayed
over the green which highlights
slopes and discrepancies. All you
need to do is stop an advancing red
bar when the correct power marker is
reached. While this marker is
determined by the computer, it is oniy
based on a flat and
even green. So you
have to compensate
for any bumps
yourself in order to
sink the ball.

BUBBLE BOBBLE

THE HIT SQUAD

Bubble
Bobble was
initially
released
around four
years ago on
most of the popular 8-bit formats.
At the time, there was nothing
better and it still comfortably
holds its own against many of the
current releases,

You and, if you so desire, a
team mate can take control of
two cute dragons, incidentally
named Bub and Bob who must
battle their way through no less
than 100 levels of chaos In
search of their buxom, beautiful,
beloved girlfriends.

The real atm of the game is to
jump around the mass of
platforms blowing bubbles and
trapping every single one of the
baddies in order to convert them
into bonus objects.

If you’ve never been fortunate
enough to play this game, buy It
now. ft's one of the most fun and
addictive games that I’ve ever
had the pleasure of playing and
at this ridiculous price that can't
be bad, can it?

POWER DRIFT

THE HIT SQUAD

Power Drift in
the arcades
was OK, ft
looked good, it
sounded pretty
neat and
surprisingly enough, it played
reasonably well too. There’s also
no doubting that a game such as
this relies on the speed of the
hardware. And, I'm afraid the
Amiga just ain't fast enough.

Taking control of a small
manoeuvrable buggy, you must
drive your way around 27 roller
coasteMike circuits and attempt
to leave the other competing
buggies in your slipstream. If you
fail to reach one of the
checkpoints In a specified time
limit the game ends.

Before l continue, I’d like to
pass on my condolences to
anybody who was stupid enough
to buy this when it was over £20,
If you haven’t got it yet, don't buy
it now because its uncontrollable,
it’s impossible to tell what the
hell's going on and it’s a terrible
waste of eight quid. Avoid this
like you'd avoid Aids or the
bubonic plague.

I'll briefly detail the gameplay.
You play the part of a God who

The more followers you

though, it ain’t all one way.

wants his share of the cake.
Therefore, it's up to you to

ANTICS IN THE BABV ZONE

.•> ‘jiifV,
'

Babies have been
around for quite a long
time. In fact, we’ve all
been one at some
time in our lives even
though tor some
unknown reason we can never
remember. Still take it from us you
were one, but if crapping in your
nappy and puking over your mum
were your idea of adventure you were
nothing compared to Baby Jo.

He’s willing to take on the whole
world just to get back to the loving
warmth of his mother.

With a storyline as sick as Baby
Jo you may initially find yourself
wanting to watch the cute little sucker
bum and bhjb his eyes out, but once
you take control of him you’ll soon
change your mind and will be egging
him on to mummy with some of the
foulest language ever thought up. Sc
exactly how sickening is this storyline I
hear you ask.

CUTESY LITTLE KID

Baby Jo's mum is obviously suffering
from senile dementia because she’s
left our little cutesy in the woods all
alone and seems to have forgotten
about him completely, Fortunately, the
little fellow is extremely resourceful
and has a great sense of direction -
he can smell mashed apple from miles
away! Pretty useful actually because
he's got a long way to go,

As tough as he may seem, Jo is
just like any other baby - he cries
when he is hurt, smiles when he finds
his favourite things, screams when he
gets burned, shows his satisfaction
after a good meal, is sad when he falls
and sucks his thumb when he's bored.
The only things he doesn’t do is pooh
his nappy and throw up everywhere -
thank God!

His main attributes are his ability
to run very fast, jump very high, and

float casually to the ground when in
the air. However, Jo is gonna need to
muster all his abilities if he is to avoid
the nasties of the countryside, such as
killer wasps, rolling logs, egg laying
birds, forest fires and poisonous
caterpillars. Non© of these have much
respect for the charming tikkte billy!

THINGS THAT GO UIAAAHI

Mother Nature has provided help for
our sickeningly sweet hero The Super
Diaper gives Baby Jo super-speed
and enables him to cross huge
distances in a single bound, the
Protective Cape is temporary but

Fortunately. Jo can arm himself with weapons
such as the rattle bet only three of these can he
held at once but each is useful for destroying
the nasties such as the egg-faying bird.

A balloon provides access to those areas that
can not normally be reached. By leaping on the
string that hangs from the balloon. Baby Jo will

Although you may think that Baby Jo is a

keep you waggling your stick tor ages. The
graphics are superb - Baby Jo being very
nicely animated with some superb baby
images. The sound effects ere also of a very

admit I became more than a tittle excited, as I
thought my dreams had come true , Unfortunately.
7 was rather disappointed. Although the gameplay
is fine on a fast machine tike a PC, the Amiga
can t handle alt the information that needs to be
processed. The result is a game that is frustrating
to play because of the stow update, ft you
persevere for many hours, you become used to
the situation and ready enjoy the game but t fear
that most people will give up fong before the time

STORM HI A TEACUP

Having bought SW/V when it originally
came out, I was disgusted to read that
Storm (the game 's publisher) had re-
released it on both a budget label and
compilation . To say Tve been
completely ripped off is an
understatement I paid over 20 quid
for this game and now it r s available for
under a tenner. Surely software
houses shouldn't be allowed to get
away with this. What are your views
on the subject?

Giles Moore, Wldnes

Firstly Giles, I'm not sure that SW!V is
available on budget. In fact, Vm
positive that somewhere along the line
you’ve been misinformed. Anyway it is
available on compilation and to be
quite honest I really don't see what
the problem is.

From Storm's point of view it’s
quite simply a way of making extra
money out of a game which has
eventually lost its selling power in the
lull pnce market. Any thriving business
would do the same and Pm sure you
would if you were in a similar situation.

LEAGUES ABOVE

My friends and I were recently
debating how you work out where to
put a game in the Super Leagues . I
said you work them out on a
percentage basis , he said that unit
sales determined their position, if you
do go off percentages how come
some games with lower percentages
get put above those with greater
scores? Please explain how it works .

Timothy Smith, Newborn

You wouldn't believe how many letters
we receive from readers regarding our
Super Leagues. Actually, you were
closer to the truth than your friend who
was way out. We do work out where
to put a game using its percentage
rating but only for that particular issue.

For instance, if one platform game
receives a higher percentage than
another platform game in the same
issue, the higher rated game would be
placed further up the league.

However, some games don't
stand the test of time as well as others
and can be placed below newer
games that have in fact received lower
marks in a later issue.

Finally, a quick word to all those
sad types that send in complaints
because their favourite game isn't top
of the league. Everybody has their
own opinions including ourselves. If
you don't agree with our opinions,
tough luck.

AMIGA

ACTION

MONKEY BUSINESS

1 am writing in to find out if The Secret
Of Monkey island 2 - LeChuck's
Revenge is coming out on the Amiga .
ff it isn't please explain why.

Robert Finney, Chisiehurst

Yes it is! Therefore, no, t will not
explain why it isn't.

GREAT NEBULUS DEBATE

/ have been a Nebuius fan ever since
the original came out and when i
heard about Nebuius 2 ( bought the
September edition which reviewed it
straight away. I was , of course,
impressed with the high rating of 92%
and was all set to buy until l saw a
review in another magazine for just
66% What shall! do? Take your word
for it and buy it r or take the other
magazine s opinion and give it a
miss? I don’t understand how the
ratings can vary so much, perhaps
you can tell me why?

Mark Ripley, Canterbury

Surprisingly enough, there has
recently been a debate in CTW about
the two conflicting ratings you've quite
rightly questioned. Once again, we
have to say that it's ail down to the
reviewers particular tastes in games.
Doug obviously enjoyed it, our rival
magazine didn't. Personally, I found it
a little too frustrating and would have
rated it in the high seventies, low
eighties region. Cop out, or what?

COUERDISK DILEMMA

In the August edition of Amiga Action
one of the games on the coverdisk
was Championship Athletics and in
the ‘ Worth its weight in gold" section
you said it was a very good game .
However , in the October issue when
you reviewed the game it was given a
very poor 41%. The review said that
the animation was naff (which i agree
with) and that you could end up with a
hernia before that game had finished,
if you thought the game was such
rubbish, why did you put ft on your
usually excellent coverdisks ?

Paul Faulkner, Hayton

When a software company
approaches us with a coverdisk demo,
it's not up to us to decide whether or
not it’s a good game. That bit is up to

you. The whole idea behind coverdisk
demos is to give you. the reader, and
potential buyer of computer software
an Insight into new releases.
Therefore, it's up to you to decide
whether or not to buy the full priced
product once it's released.

Hawk must have had faith in
Championship Athletics otherwise
they wouldn't have agreed to
demonstrate it through our magazine
in the first place.

CHEAP AHD CHEERFUL

Fve noticed that most malt order
companies in your magazine advertise
games at cut down prices .

For instance t game such as
Populous, Kick Off II and Rainbow
/stands can be purchased for under
ten pounds whereas newer releases
such as Jimmy White’s Whirlwind
Snooker and Magic Pockets can be
bought for around twenty pounds at
the very most. Are these companies
selling pimte copies or are they a kind
of dub that forces you to buy so many
games a year a cut down prices?
Should I trust these companies and
pay less or stick to buying games from
chain stores?

P Brown, Halifax

There's no reason why you shouldn’t
trust mall order companies. The
majority of them run an excellent
service and it's all perfectly above
board (ie, no piracy). All you get is the
same game at a much cheaper price.

Some services, like you say insist
that you buy a set number of games
each year at low prices. People who
buy games on a regular basis can
therefore benefit from such schemes.

GISSO JOB

/ am currently studying Art at my local
college and eventually hope to use
this course as a stepping stone into
designing and drawing graphics for
computer software ,

As Amiga Action is by far my
favourite magazine I was hoping you
may be able to recommend what
further steps to take in order to
achieve my aim. Should I write to the
software companies in question or
look out for job advertisements?
Thanks in advance for any ideas you
may put forward.

C Johnston, Cardiff

The first thing you should do is create
some sort of slideshow containing
your best work and send it to as many
software houses as possible.
Unfortunately though, many won t
reply as they tend to get thousands of
fetters and disks from potential
graphic artists and programmers each
year. It goes without saying that you'll
need a lot of luck as well as skill to get
anywhere at all.

It’s all a matter of being in the
right place at the right time. Sorry, It’s
a bit of a downer 1 know, but keep
trying and you never know where it
might lead.

PROBLEMS WITH THE PLUS

I’ve recently bought the new Amiga
500 Plus. I was faithfully told that
Commodore had accidentally shipped
a whole load of them over to Britain
prior to the release date.

i was very disappointed, however,
to find that it will not load certain
programs. Couid you phase update
your coverdisks so that they wifi run
on this new model.

I am also a great fan of public
domain software and would like to
know whether or not ail PD programs
will load or not. How long do you think
it will take before ail the software
houses start producing software to run
on all models?

Owen Hamnett, Swansea

Without any doubt, all new software
released on the Amiga will work fine
with the 500 Plus. However, around
35% of current titles on the market
won't run, so try and find this out
before parting with your cash.

As to whether public domain
software works on the 500 Plus, well,
your guess is as good as mine. Most
demos don't respect the Amiga's
complex operating system anyway, so
I'd be very surprised to find any old
compatible demos.

Remember, we hand out free
software to any letters that we feel are
worthy of a prize. Write your letters
fairly short, dearly and to the point.

mis month's Lain high on section features several nig games mam no count receiue
rave reviews in next month s issue oi Amiga Action. Big names such as. the long
awaited Lemmings data disks, ocean s uirestlemania and the massive strategy game
Realms from Ulrgini For those wno cannot wait, here’s a hrial run oouin of each to
whet your aooellte.

§H ni! MIRE LEIMRIinfiS

STAND ALONE IfERSION £25.9S
DATA DISH £10.09

The original Lemmings was an all time classic and,
needless to say, sold by the truck load, lt F s also
quite easy to predict that Oh Nol More Lemmings
will be just as popular I'd just like to point out that
this isn't Lemmings 2, Oh no. this is merely a data
disk containing no less than 100 additional levels.

Created by the same DMA team that brought
us the original classic Lemmings, we can expect a
lot more of the same, but with a much steeper
difficulty curve. For a start, there are several new
Lemming crushers and bads of new traps. It's also
available in two formats: A stand alone version for
those who don’t own the original and a data disk
that must be used with the original Lemmings.

UIIIF WRESTLlllllll
0CEWHE25.09

Ever since SKY Sports started broadcasting the
eyebrow raising spectacle of American wrestling,

the popularity of this sport has blossomed.

So popular in fact, that a coin-op representation
of the game is already gracing our arcades. Ocean
never miss the chance to please the punters and
therefore have snapped up the licencing rights to
this popular theme.

Your job is to compete against five of The
toughest and meanest wrestlers in the world in a
brave attempt to win the Wrestlemania Belt. Each
of the opponents have individual characteristics
and special moves. You to.can choose to compete
as one of three wrestlers who also have their own
individual speciality move.

REALMS

VIRGII—£25.99

Ever since the legendary Populous appeared,
there’s been no end of isometric arcade style
strategy games released on the Amiga. Graftgold,
the proud creators of Realms, claim to have
thought up the idea in the first place, hence the
length of time spent developing this latest addition
to the theme.

Playing the part of a King, you’ve Just inherited
a realm from your deceased father. Unfortunately,
there’s another realm that considers itself more
important. It's up to you decide whether to barter
with them or build an army to battle against them.
Each realm vies to be the ultimate power. There
can only be one! You must ensure that it’s yours.

This is Cardiaxx. Featuring interactive digitised
speech, masses of adversaries and a number of
huge end-oMevel guardians, you must fight through
multi-chambered mayhem. To help your cause, you

computing and takes a look at the
industry from a lighter angle.

Academy is definitely on being totally
weird and crazy t

The Space Academy is the bottom
rung of the ladder of the Federation s
Space Fleet and is where normal
computer folk become Space Cadets,

BYE. BYE JANEY!

For those of you who read the
magazine credits (above), you will
have noticed that Amiga Action
now has a new Art Editor. This is
because Jane Gollner has decided
it is time to move on to pastures
now (in fact she's only moved
across the office to work on
Games-X!).

Jane was, of course, an
instrumental figure In making
Amiga Action the truly massive and
visualfy stunning organ that it truly
is, and we re certain that she can
only help increase the success of
Great Britain's leading computer
games weekly.

We ali wish Jane well in her
new position and just hope that the
Games-X staff can cope with
Jane's particularly virulent and
unpredictable strain of Bovine
Spongiform Encephalopathy!
